Swimming in Bangalore

Its such a pain to find out about swimming pools in Bangalore. Most of them are being maintained by Clubs who charge around 2-3 Lakhs for membership! WTH? For a one day/week swim, do I need to pay that much? Nope! Here I have 2 awesome swimming pools listed out! They charge minimum and you can have a very good time swimming. :-)

Bangalore BBMP Swimming Pool - PM Swimming Center
Location : Jayanagar
For 40 Mins : 16 INR.
The swimming pool looks clean. It has a good length and depth. For pro swimmers, this place would be an awesome practice ground.
But personally I didn't prefer this pool cause of the crowd that comes in here!

National Games Village Swimming Pool
Location : Koramangala
For 1 Hour : 100 INR.
Awesome Swimming Pool. Length : 25 Mts. Max Depth : 5 1/2 feet. Very decent crowd.
Open to all from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. I think they use Ozone. There's a separate pool for children. The pool is Unisex, so there's no specific timings for ladies and gents. Since, the crowd is decent, there shouldn't be any problem as such!!

Happy Swimming!!!
